A WON'T FIX bug or an WELCOME to provide a patch

Today I received a comment of my NetBeans bug report from NetBeans team, and seems it's the only one from NetBeans team:

This bug was reported against NetBeans IDE 6.0 or an older release, or against a non-maintained module. NetBeans team does not have enough resources to get to this issue, therefore we are closing the issue as a WONTFIX. If you are interested in providing a patch for this bug, please see our NetFIX guidelines for how to proceed.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Thank you. The NetBeans Team

It's one of the reasons why I prefer to use IntelliJ IDEA as the favorite Java IDE.
